  @Steve-Haley said in Dxf import: was led to believe that this version could directly import DXF files. There is no DXF support yet, and none mentioned in the documentation or website. DXF support is planned for version 1.3

  Does Vectorstyler support switching brush and/or color by switching to another physical Wacom pen? (Tool ID)

  Thanks for the info everyone. Just to clarify; I really would like to use this to switch brushes (in several software) (so not only to have having different settings like sensitivity curves in Wacom). Looks like this Tool ID feature to switch brushes is already possible with Wacom since 2017!! And at least available in software since 5 years ago (!) as seen in this video by Aaron Rutten of 5 years ago where he literally does switch two wacom pens to switch brushes and talks about this in the video below: youtube video

  @jammessbol However, I sometimes find myself spending too much time on certain repetitive tasks. What kind of repetitive tasks? Some examples might help to find a good answer.

  @Boldline Not currently. The outline preview will render white outboard. This can be added as an option to show the color.

  @Boldline This is be easy to fix, but it will then change default behavior. Currently this is by design (default for zoom, pan and rotation). I will add an other action (maybe set to Command-0 by default) that only resets the zoom and panning to fit into screen

  @monsterfox That tool should not be listed among the actions (something internal). The correct simplify path tool is in the toolbox (3rd tool group).

  @Yaoif Yes, it is called Elastic Warp. Can be added as a shape effect and then edited (similar editing as in Illustrator).

  @Boldline It will render the whole visible (or exported) area. This is basically the whole layer, the artboards are just guides for printing / exporting (Same goes with any other drawing). Adjustment effects can be restricted to an area or any shape, by drawing an object, adding the effect ti the object (as a regular image effect) and turning the object into an adjustment layer (in Object Options)

  @Boldline said in How do I reset the settings of the eraser panel back to the default?: It would make more sense if "default was listed instead of it always saying "custom". I will try to change this.

  @VectorStyler ok I think I understand. The file gets stored here "behind the scenes" but we look for the custom settings found inside the folder(s) where we adjust the settings file and workspace drop down buttons in the context panel. makes sense now - thank you
